Low temperatures will remain sub 30 degrees for much of the region this week. Expect these cooler temperatures during morning commutes.

SHORT TERM

(Tonight through Monday night) Issued at 1118 PM CST Sat Jan 10 2026

No major changes were made to the short term package. The upper level pattern begins to stagnate over our area for the next few days. As H500 heights rise, so will surface temperatures. Highs today will return to the 50's for much of the area, and the 60's will return by Monday. Low temperatures should remain near seasonal averages, and surface winds will stay light for the next 48 hours.

LONG TERM

(Tuesday through next Saturday) Issued at 1118 PM CST Sat Jan 10 2026

Generally, the extended period remains unsettled with concerns to the upper level pattern. However, for our area, we are not expecting any drastic changes. The first upper level trough this week digs south on Wednesday. The Panhandles are expected to be under the left entrance region of this trough, and may not see much of an exaggerated change in surface temperatures despite the northerly wind flow. Even lower temperatures may occur if the cold front moves more overhead of the CWA. By Friday, the second cold front is anticipated to impact more of the CWA and highs should return back to average values. Still no precipitation is forecast through the next 7 days.
